When I met the parents
When my g/f first met my parents for lunch, my Dad leant over and ate food off her plate. My mother was mortified, I was a bit confused, she thought it was wonderfull and that she'd been accepted.
We at B3ta are sure you've had worse than this though... tell us all about it.

Ah in-laws....
...I appear to have had a succession of scary in-laws...
First set - the local family planning nurse. A cross between Olive Oyl and Nanny Ogg from the discworld books. At least once a week she would present me with a selection of 'freebies' to 'test'. Said presentation would be accompanied by a the biggest shit-eating grin you never did see.
The mafioso - a few years back I dated an EXTREMELY upper-middle glass lass from Essex. First meeting with her family round the dining table. in order to make conversation with her rather stand-offish old man I asked him what he did. the answer came back that he worked as a director for a large waste disposal firm. He then regaled me with the tale of the bloke he knew who knew a bloke who 'breaks legs 2 for the price of one'. his daughter, who had never watched The Sopranos couldn't quite understand why I insisted(probably suicidally) as aaddressing him as Tony...
And the current GF folks...first meeting her mum enaged me in a conversation as to why I shouldn't use a particular brand of nail varnish..
